To all whom it/ULGI/ concern v Be it known that I, CARTER DE Monaur- ONDO,I a citizen of the United States,.and a resident of thecity of New York', bor ough of Brooklyn,'in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented. agnew and mproved Stocking Purse, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description} JThis invention relates to pocketbooks or purses and particularly to an improvedconstruotion adapted to coact witha stocking when in use whereby the p urse is held inffa desired position and against molestation" by unauthorized persons. I I I a Q 1 Another object of the invention to provide a purse or pocket book adapted to'Tbe connected 1 with the top of a stocking the construction being such that the: pocket book must be bent or distorted when applyingIor removing. s I A further object of the inii ention isto pro.- vide a pocket book for a stocking which may be quickly and easily appliedand removed by an authorized person without injuring the pocket book orthe stocking T In the accompanying drawing+ g Figure 1 is a view partlyin perspective showing part of a stocking in lace an ij purse embodying the invention-"app "ejd theretof Figure 2 is an i enlarged elevation ofl ure 2"approximately onlin e 'ji Figure 4: is a View similar to ing being omitted.

Figure 5 is a fragmentary sectional View similar to Figure 4 but showing a further modified construction. I

Figure 6 is a View similar to Figure 4 but disclosing a further modified form of the invention.

Referring to the accompanying drawing by numerals, 1 indicates a stocking of any desired kind to which a purse :2 is secured near the upper end 3. The purse may be arranged interiorly of the stocking as shown or exteriorly as preferred and may be quickly applied or removed by the respective fastening elements 4: and 5.

As indicated more particularly in Figures I 2 and 8, the fastening elements 4: and 5 are disclosed more or less in detail. From these figures it will be observed that these elements I i -11a 3 but T showing a modified construction; the stockp denti a s that th description r o e lwill i aipply to'bot h-Q, As indicated particularly Figureg3, a strip of fabricffi extends fiemP- s at. th upp r en bw w y along theback S of the purse v9 forflsubstanhalfthe; height f'the purse though this ,is not, essential as merely an appreciable I length is desired; fifpoint 1O the strip 6 is folded and isclalmped to the back, 8 a rivet 11v which; is slio'wlnas, an eyelet; From the man thestripegtends through a clip 12 tq'wluc sth 5?: 3isfri d y ec fe h by a'id pe t] 1sv held in: place.

The eye structure eeivefth: cros b n 19 lQtdesigued- 1 1pc "is 10f: yw 'es ed u ed. whose sun- 1 be i i d th lt he 903F is vr ion 1. t fha i t e I fits-thin 's portion 22 of link 20 or said large portion moved s, .errens I 16 looped around itself for down to the post in order to apply or remove I the link 20. In order to accomplish this feat, not only must the strip of cloth or other suitable material12 be bent but also the purse must be bent or distorted. It will thus be i seen that when the parts are in the position shown in Figure 1, in order to remove the purse, it must be bent twice as the elements 4 and 5 are unfastened. This arrangement will result in preventing an unauthorized person from removing the purse surreptitiously.

In Figure 4 a modified construction is shown wherein the strip of cloth 6 extends i from point 7 down to point 10 and entirely back to point 7 where it is looped upon itself so as to make the eye structure 17. Aside from this variation, the construction is 4 identical with that shown in Figure 3 so will, tion.

In Figure 5, the strip 6 or 6 is eliminated completely and a strip 16" is riveted directly to the back 8 and the post or stud 13" therefore, need no additional Y descripis provided with extensions or prongs 23 which are bent over and if desired, clinched in the back 8. In this form as Well as in the form shown in Figure 4, the purse mustextension 25 which overlaps the front, 24

and forms'a cover or closing lid.

Figure 6 is a view similar to Figure 4 but disclosing a slightly different construction wherein a single strip"26 of leather, cloth or other material is provided. vand is bent over at 27 so as'to properly receive the eyelet 18, A second or auxiliary eyelet 1.8. is providedia short distance from the eyelet 15 so as to enclose the end of the link 20. Below the eyelet l8 are arranged the respective eyelets l5 and1l similar to the construction shown in Figure 4 so' that no additional description will be necessary; It will also be noted that between the eyelets l1 and 15 the 'post 13 and associated parts I are arranged toproperly co-act with the link 20. t j 1 a What I claim is r a '1. A stocking purse,'-comprising a purse formed with aflexible body and fastening means'therefor, saidafasten' ng means comprising a post having an enlarged head connected withethe purse at a given point, and a cO-acting link pivotallv connected'iwith the'purse at a distant point, said link have ing a restricted sectionvand an enlarged section, said enlargedsection by reason of the position of the pivotal connection with'the purse being arranged at such adistance from the post as tov necessitate the folding or bending of the purse to an appreciable extent before the post can be inserted into the restricted portion of the link. i V

2. A stocking purse, comprising a flexible body and a pair of independent fastening elements connected therewith, each of said the post or despaced from the upper end, and a link pivotally connected with said body at the upper end, said link co -acting with said post for connecting thebody to a stocking, said link being formed with an elongated restricted portion which necessitates the bend ing of the body of the purse before it can be fitted onto said post. M 4. A stocking purse of the characterdescribed, comprising'a flexible body and a plurality of fastening elements connected thereto, each of said fastening elements comprising a strip ofcloth bent at one end, and aloop of cloth arranged to overlap said strip .of cloth at the end opposite the bent over end, a link pivotally supported by said a loop of cloth, a post supported by said'bent over strip of-cloth, and eyelets for rigidly securing said strip. of cloth and said loop to t the back'of said purse, said link having a restricted portion fitting over said post," and an, enlargement merging into the restricted portion at a point normally spaced from the post whereby the purse-must be. partially folded to permit the link to be placed over the post. or removed therefrom.
